I am trying to run elasticsearch.bat on my local windows machine after downloading the zip file on Windows. I get error:

could not find java; set JAVA_HOME or ensure java is in PATH

I already set JAVA_HOME and also put it in the PATH and I can type 'java' in my command line and see all the options. So why is elastic search not able to find it?

elasticsearch java-home

Possible solutions:

  1. set your path to JDK package and not JRE package

  2. Set your path up to JDK folder and not bin folder, example

    C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_181
